Getting stuck in a cycle of gestures?!
Conrad_The_Comrade replied to Kamikaze-X's topic in General Discussion
I have absolutely no clue, but the guy killing you must've enjoyed that xD -
The chances of a grenade actually exploding from getting shot is highly unlikely (Although still remains possible). Just saying :l
-
I dont like the idea of having more HUDs and such, I like the immersion of having to remember, and look things up in game. However, I would like a book in game about medical things such as the blood type chart.

The gardening lime is actually used in the greenhouses with other gardening tools, however the only confirmed crop I know of that you can actually grow as of right now would be the tomato. Have fun :)

DayZ Standalone FPS goes from 20-30 down to 0-2 in a second
Conrad_The_Comrade replied to ConMan_330's topic in Troubleshooting
I've seen a lot of people with this problem, and thankfully, I don't have it. Sadly however, I don't know what it could be, the only thing I could suggest (Keep in mind I'm not tech-savvy, I don't know nearly enough about computers to give a good answer) would be something simple like verifying the game cache/integrity. Idk, hope this helps? -
Alrighty, no, rangefinders do not work (At least not for anyone I know, including myself, and I've used two so far), and about the welding mask, no clue, although I do have one in my inventory just incase xD

The Art of the Bow - Bow handling guide!
Conrad_The_Comrade replied to streakthefox's topic in New Player Discussion
Just saw that too xD Problem solved I suppose. Even still, ashwood sticks is a pain to get due to the need of an axe. -
As Sacha said.

The Art of the Bow - Bow handling guide!
Conrad_The_Comrade replied to streakthefox's topic in New Player Discussion
Thank you, I was actually wondering whether I could use a normal stick for the bow or not, sadly that's a no. In my personal opinion, I think they make bow crafting a little too much of a hassle for anyone to actually want to use, especially compared to the amount of firearms that you can collect throughout Chernarus. Now maybe when ammunition is lower, and chickens are a little more common, then maybe, just maybe bows will be considered by a decent amount of survivors. -
Now I'm wondering, how in the world did that thing get up there? xD

My screen seems to keep up in a fight, although I could be mistaken as I haven't been in a good fight that doesn't include a firearm being shot at my face in a good while. But even so, a couple indicators would be nice. I just want different people with heavier/lighter gear to run at different speeds that way some people can catch their prey after they try running from the fight ;)

I've gotten the "I'm warming up" or whatever it is just by gathering a collection of different warm-ish clothing. I've used the Ushanka, gloves, jeans and a rider's jacket and kept warm enough (No cold status). Once it rains, that's a little bit of a pest, but I've never had a problem with it, never died of the cold or anything of the sort. Also, if you think about it, you shouldn't be necessarily warm in a region like Chernarus, it's going to be really cold, that's just normal, it should be rare anyone gets truly warm without use of a fire or rubbing your buttocks against your car engine (When they add cars of course ;) )

Well, not to argue with you, but the whole concept of DayZ is to make our own stories. We don't know why we're on the shore with barely anything, that's up to us to decide. I claim we survived the plane wreck, other say boat wreck, some people say this and that and this. We don't have a definite story, because the story is up to us to make. We're all individual people, with different lives and stories. We determine what track we take, and what track we took, for this is DayZ

Confused about how new features are pushed to stable for testing.
Conrad_The_Comrade replied to brazorf's topic in General Discussion
See, some people think of this as an actual game instead of the test-build that it is, and then we'd have complaints of things being too common, but on the other hand we have complaints about stuff not being common enough. At least this argument serves a purpose in the testing of the game, so yes, I agree. If anything, increase spawn rates for testing new things significantly on Experimental servers. -
I like the idea at the ending about recuperating at the end of a fight, however you can tell if you're about to die because your screen will start to get a little gray-ish, things will blur, stuff like that. Also, you cant predict going unconscious sometimes because it's just that lucky smack to your forehead.
-
Yes please! :D I can have my telescopic baton in my pocket and my umbrella in my jacket cx
-
I think so, and I absolutely agree with it. Firearms and ammunition for said firearms should be rare, and "worth" more. People should be skeptical about shooting even a single bullet, and guns shouldn't appear every other military building, more than likely people would have scavenged them already (If you're into that lore business)
-
I'm guessing this is sarcasm, but even still, no, just no. I've gotten warm without a down jacket, I've survived getting soaked, you just need to put forth a tiny bit of effort into survival.

Sudden instant death and player Hit Points
Conrad_The_Comrade replied to Paxom (DayZ)'s topic in General Discussion
He wasn't mistaken, once your down to one, you better stay away from everything dangerous (So stay away from DayZ) ;) -
Why does my screen flash a light shade of blue when getting shot at? (Not trolling, I'm legitimately curious)
Conrad_The_Comrade replied to cheeseburger8's topic in New Player Discussion
Lol, no it wasn't a color blindness test, I'm sure of that. -
1) I don't think they should remove the timer for rejoining the same server. Their should absolutely have a timer, because combat-loggers should at least be annoyed by the fact they log out mid-fight. 2) I like the idea of being able to dig with hands, but it should take longer/have less chance of finding worms than using a shovel/farming hoe. 3) Good idea for authenticity, but don't expect to be added until beta or later, it's not a priority (As you said) 4) What do you mean combining vitamins and matches? 5) I'm pretty sure it would put more stress on the server that way. Depending on how much they optimize the game, sure, why not. 6) Elaborate? 7) I don't really see the need for it, we have a manual option to deploy the bipod, which is fine with me. 8) Absolutely, glasses should be more than a cosmetic. They need actual purpose, as you explained. Also, I think some characters should spawn with things such as bad eye sight, and need glasses (They might also spawn with a pair, because before shit hit the fan yada yada yada, but they could break and need to find more) 9) No black mountain backpack, they're designed so that if you get lost, it makes it easier to spot you. That's why we have hunter packs, and craftable packs. 10) Ehh, gloves shouldn't have that big of an impact other than to keep warm 11) I already disagree with heli crashes, since everything (In my opinion) should be player-based and actual player stories. 12) They talked about this before, but they're not sure if they can do stuff like that (Not sure why, look it up) 13) Absolutely, the more purposes for things the better. 14) Planned already, no worries, that's why we have purification tablets xD 15) I think they've discussed this, and I'm pretty sure they plan on adding more depth to the map. 16) Not really a priority, I don't see the need. 17) I think fireplaces do already have a "timer", but I could be mistaken. 18) Yes, meat all looks the same, ruins immersion in my opinion, but not a priority.

No clue, I've heard similar reports. Probably just gonna have to wait for a patch

How do I not panic/shake when I get in a gunfight?
Conrad_The_Comrade replied to cheeseburger8's topic in New Player Discussion
Like your actual hand in reality is shaking, or your in game character? If you mean your real one, just take deep breaths and remind yourself it's just a game :P If it's in game, no clue, I rarely get into firefights, I talk my way out of most of them. -
For starters, just because people have good gear does not in fact mean they server hop. Me and my pals go across Chernarus in search of gear, and I've ended up with all military gear, a 75 round drum mag (Plus some extra standard mags), an AK, and spare ammo for it, and we don't ever server hop. Also, are you sure he ghosted, or do you just assume this because he got the jump on you? If it's just because he surprised you from behind, it's pretty easy to sneak around people and such, it doesn't mean they ghosted. It seems like too much a hassle and risk for them to switch servers just to kill you.

Conrad_The_Comrade replied to cheeseburger8's topic in New Player Discussion
I don't know how to really explain this too well, but once I saw (Keep in mind this was on the internet and could easily be false) that only certain shades/colors were visible to certain people. It gave 3 images in this article, each displaying a different number in one of these peculiar shades or whatever, and only some people could see a certain one. Maybe this or something similar is the case in your mysterious blue?
